Now, I know I'm probably gonna get a load of "OMG Go read teh Lore Ages"
But, what I'm thinking is this.
Racial Ages don't make sense!
I'm going to use Blood Elves as an example.
I understand they live for a few hundred years, but the guide says they reach adulthood at 110, aye?
Would it really take 110 YEARS for them to grow and mature to Adulthood? 110 years to grow to 6'?
That's 0.05 of a foot per year.
And surely they would know everything needed in a similar timeframe to most races.
If you say, yes, 110 IS adulthood,
Then all Blood Elves would be far too intelligent, and also, all playable ones would have to have been born before the Orcs as we know them even existed, and well before the Horde.
